Harvey Weinstein Found Guilty of Sexual Assault After Tensions Explode on New York Jury


Harvey Weinstein was found guilty Wednesday of sexual assault in the first degree, but the jury acquitted him on a second charge.

Harvey Weinstein has been convicted on one charge of committing a criminal sexual act in his sex crimes retrial in New York City. The partial verdict comes after a weeks-long trial that began in April, during which three women testified about the alleged sexual assaults committed by the former Hollywood producer. In their testimonies, Haley alleged that Weinstein forcibly sexually assaulted her at his apartment in 2006, while Mann accused him of raping her at a hotel in 2013.
